The work of preparing International Standards is normally car

22、ried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

23、 ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare Interna

24、tional Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the

25、elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 10156 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 58, Gas cylinders, Subcommittee SC 2, Cylinder fittings. This third edition of ISO 10156 cancels and re

26、places ISO 10156:1996 and ISO 10156-2:2005. It gives updated data for flammability and oxidizing ability. BS EN ISO 10156:2010EN ISO 10156:2010 (E) BSI 2010vIntroduction ISO 5145 1and other related standards establish practical criteria for the determination of outlet connections of cylinder valves.

27、 These criteria are based on certain physical and chemical properties of the gases. In particular, the flammability in air and the oxidizing ability are considered. One of the potential complications that prompted the development of this International Standard is that whilst there are abundant data

28、in the literature relating to pure gases, differences can be found, depending upon the test methods employed; in the case of gas mixtures, data in the literature are often incomplete or even non-existent. The initial aim of this International Standard was to eliminate the ambiguities in the case of

29、differences in the literature, and above all, to supplement existing data (mainly in the case of gas mixtures). Subsequently, this International Standard was used for other purposes than the selection of cylinder valve outlets, such as establishing flammability and oxidizing potential data for label

30、ling according to international transport regulations and dangerous substances regulations, under the umbrella of the Globally Harmonized System (GHS).

31、ty for the selection of cylinder valve outlets 1 Scope This International Standard specifies methods for determining whether or not a gas or gas mixture is flammable in air and whether a gas or gas mixture is more or less oxidizing than air under atmospheric conditions. This International Standard i

32、s intended to be used for the classification of gases and gas mixtures including the selection of gas cylinder valve outlets. This International Standard does not cover the safe preparation of these mixtures under pressure and at temperatures other than ambient. 2 Terms, definitions, symbols and uni

34、a gas or gas mixture in an homogeneous mixture with air at which a flame just starts to propagate NOTE 1 The lower flammability limit is determined at atmospheric conditions. NOTE 2 The term “flammability limit”, as used in this International Standard, is sometimes called “explosion limit”. 2.1.3 up

NOTE 2 The term “flammability limit”, as used in this International Standard

36、, is sometimes called “explosion limit”. 2.1.4 flammability range range of concentration between the lower and upper flammability limits NOTE The term “flammability range”, as used in this International Standard, is sometimes also called “explosion range”.

42、 are given as molar fractions (mol. %) which are equivalent to volume fractions (vol. %) under normal atmospheric conditions. 3 Flammability of gases and gas mixtures in air 3.1 General Subclauses 3.2 and 3.3 give a test method and a calculation method for determining whether a gas or gas mixture is

43、 flammable in air. The test method (given in 3.2) may be used in all cases but shall be used when Tci(or Li) values are not available. The calculation method (given in 3.3) may only be used if reliable Tci(or Li) values are available. 3.2 Test method 3.2.1 Key points concerning safety Tests shall be

44、 carried out by trained and competent personnel working in accordance with authorized procedures (see also 3.2.4). The reaction tube and flowmeter shall be adequately screened to protect personnel in the event of an explosion. Personnel shall wear personal protective equipment including safety glass

45、es. During the ignition sequence, the reaction tube shall be open to the atmosphere and isolated from the gas supply. Care shall also be taken during the analysis of the test gas or mixture. 3.2.2 Principle The gas or gas mixture is mixed in the desired proportions with air. In the quiescent test mi

46、xture, an ignition is initiated using an electric spark, and it is observed whether or not a flame propagates through the reaction tube. 3.2.3 Test apparatus and materials The apparatus (see Figure 1) includes: a mixer; a tube in which the reaction takes place; an ignition system; a system of analys

47、is to determine the test-gas composition. NOTE Alternative equivalent apparatus may be used, as described in standard test methods for the determination of explosion limits, e.g. EN 1839 2and ASTM E 681 3. 3.2.3.1 Preparation 3.2.3.1.1 Test gas The test gas shall be prepared to represent the most fl

48、ammable composition that can occur in the normal course of production. The criteria to be used in establishing the composition of the test gas are manufacturing tolerances, i.e. the test gas shall contain the highest concentration of flammable gases encountered in the normal manufacturing process an

49、d the moisture content shall be less than or equal to 0,01 %. The test gas shall be thoroughly mixed and carefully analysed to determine the exact composition.
